Personality:
Frequent Flyer, Bently to his barnmates, is a super fun ride. He stands 16.4 hands high which is huge!But he's a gentle giant. His coat is a stunning bay. His base is a light brown with a red look to it. His tail is white while his mane is black. He supports socks on all four legs and a blaze down his head. This horse knows his job and always wants to get it done right. You could say he's a work-a-holic. All he ever wants to do is work, day in and day out. He gives everyone a hard time when he's not working. You don't even want to know what Bently is like at shows. He's a spaz! He's a horse that's easy to get in a trailer when leaving the barn but not when he's leaving the show. He just gets too excited for his own good. All his attention is focused on winning, just like his owner.
Even though Bently has some working issues he is generally very calm and collected. His favorite activity is licking everyone and everything in sight. He'll lick you until your entire body is covered in horsey spit. There has never been anyone he's ever come in contact with that he didn't want to lick. Obviously humans taste pretty good.
This big boy can be handled by most anyone. Lacey's little sister has trotted him around the ring with ease. He just loves to work and listen for his commands. Anyone can work him. From the most nivice beginner to the most advanced rider around. He's the perfectly behaved mount for anyone. He can be a bit strong over fences, however. He enjoys freaking people out with his overly long distances. The rider can easily be unseated if they are not prepared for it.
Bently is a very fast learner. So that he doesn't get bored easily Lacey has taught him numerous tricks to keep his mind stimulated. Bently can count, give kisses , and stick out his tongue on command. He can also sit like a dog, take a bow, and sing? Yes you read that right. It's not acctual singing but when given a command he opens and closes his lips. When music is played in the background it acctually seems like he's singing along.
